wrenched His Back.

LYNDoNvILLE, Orleans Co., n. Y,
April 2, 1885.
About a year ago, 1 imprudently
stepped off the Hudson River cars while
thew were in molten. In trying to save
myself from a fearful fall, Wrenched
nv back terribly. The next day could
not walk, and l suffered pain from my
neck to my heels. Various applications
were made, but nothing which was done
abated my suffering. Being anxious to
get up and attend to business, l deter
mined to place three ALLCoCK's Porous
PLAsTERs, one above the other, on my
back. In about an hour and a half
thew caused considerable itching, The
pain and soreness sensibly decreased,
and rested pretty well that night.
The next morning the itching began to
be quite severe under the plasters. To
get some relief, had my back well
rubbed crossways over the Plasters. l
was surprised within two hours after
wards to find the pain and soreness
almost gone. I stayed in bed that day;
and the morning afterwards l got up
and attended to business.

doubt if any single class Of men ov-
er made n greater change in the fort
unes OF mpnkind than was brought
about by the great English seamen OF
the sixteenth century. Some of them
were slave traders, others were snug
glors, almost al were lawlcss men III a
lawless age; but the result Of their dar-
ms exhibitions was to alter the destiny
of the American continent, and there
fore the career of the human race.
In the year 1900, Spain, with Portu-
gal, was the undisputed master of the
New World. At the present time
neither Spain nor Portugal owns a foot
OF land upon the main continent OF
North or South America The destiny
Of the whole Western world has been
changed; and throughout almost all the
northern half Of it the language, the in
stituiions, the habits, lave been equally
transformed. At thc time when
Europe was first stirred by the gold and
the glory brought from the newly-dis-
covered America, it was only Spain,
and in small degro Portugal, that
rcapcd the harvest. These were then
the two great maritime and colonizing
powers OF Europe; and two bulls from
Pope Alexander VI in 1898 had per.
m.ttad them to divide the newly discov-
cred portions of the globe between
them. Under this authority Portugal
was finallypcrmittcd to keep Brazil
which was first colonized by the Port
ugucse-wh.ie Spain claimed all the
rest Of the continent TO this day the
results of that mutual distribution are
plainly TO be seen in South America.
Brazil speaks Portuguese, while almos.
all the rest of South America, with
Mexico, speaks Spanish. But beyond
Mexico, through all the vast length and
breadth of North America, English is
the prevailing and official language.
Throughout tta' ~ion, instead of the
Latin race, t.a oermanic prevails; in
stead Of the ,onu Catholic faith, the
Prostestan prcpondoratos. There has
not been in the history OF the world a
profounder change in the current OF
human events. The most remarkable
circumstanco Of all is, that this change
was substmtally.made in single cent
ury (tho sixteenth, and was made
mainly through single class Of men
